So Who is Matt Kloskowski and what does he know about Lightroom?

Matt is a guy that hates bios written in the third person. He … strike that … I love teaching and photography … in that order. I feel that enjoying photography, Photoshop and Lightroom can get WAY too complicated. So my personal mission (and absolute favorite thing to do), is to create education that simplifies the process of taking great photos, and how to edit them to get the results you’ve always wanted.
I’m also very honored to be included as a Sony Artisan of Imagery, a Photoshop Hall of Fame Inductee, and author of over 15 books on post-processing (Lightroom & Photoshop) and photography.
